It has certainly been a while since I’ve written a series, especially a halal cheap eats one! I’m thinking of making a whole new section on the website to accommodate for all these halal cheap eats, what do you think? If you have any halal cheap eats suggestions that are £10 and below, do let me know in the comments below.

HALAL CHEAP EATS 3

BAKE ST

What: A small eatery tucked away in the borough of Hackney. Each dish is made using the highest quality and freshest ingredients, and they serve probably the best halal burger in London (bold claim, I know!).

Order This: The classic Smash Burger [£7.50] is a double burger filled with plenty of cheeese. Tasty, cheesy, and oh so delicious, you cannot miss this! If you want to splurge a little, the fried chicken bene is the ultimate brunch dish.

ETLES UYGHUR

What: This is not your usual Chinese establishment that serves aromatic duck, sweet and sour chicken, and crispy beef. More like tripe and ox tongue, but don’t be put off as they also sell hand-pulled noodles and big plate chicken (literally a big plate of chicken and noodles).

Order This: One portion of Tugur a.k.a dumplings stuffed with chopped calf is plenty for one person. Be sure to ask for the chilli oil and vinegar to make it that more delicious.

NOODLE OODLE

What: A halal Chinese hole-in-the-wall found hidden amongst all the other non-halal Chinese establishments. I used to be a regular customer many years ago and only returned after more than 10 years this summer!

Order This: The Twin Roast Meat Platter with rice [£7.80] allows you to choose two out of the three available roasts: roast duck, roast chicken, and honey-glazed bbq chicken. The honey-glazed chicken is a must in my books!

OLD CHANG KEE

What: The famous Singaporean snack shop came to London in June this summer and have now become halal as of two months ago serving aromatic chicken curry puffs and curries too.

Order This: They currently have an all day meal deal for £9.00 that includes a good amount of chicken curry and rice, plus two spring rolls and a drink too. Or three puffs of your choice will still be under £10!

The Halal: All the chicken (which is present in all the dishes) is halal. No pork but alcohol served

It’s a small cafe with a few tables and chairs outside [not good in winter] but it’s more for takeaway customers. You can see long queues out of the door sometimes.
My fav is no 18 with beef; basil and chilli fried rice with beef. So spicy.
